- I'm going to start a petition to get Rula Lenska cast on that damn show. She'd be fabulous.
- I'd rather see a petition to have Taylor Lautner on the show, losing his cherry to Allen Leech.
- Sweetie darling, I think the 1920s version of Patsy and Edina should join the cast.
- I have a worrying feeling this show is going to go the same way as Dynasty...
- Is GOING to go?? They've had a ridiculous amnesia episode, a miraculous cripple healing, and Shirley MacLaine!
- If it's going the way of Dynasty, I hope someone (hopefully Lady Edith) gives that bitch Lady Mary a beat down a la Alexis vs. Krystal. God knows she's got it coming!
- Why is there a valet but no new lady's maid? Who will dress Cora?
- Someone at Downton needs to get tangled up with the prince of Moldavia.
Richard and Esther Shapiro
- David Muir just announced her return on the news. Why is this news?
